Some homes ask you to keep up with them. This one lets you exhale. Built in 2022 in the 55+ active adult community of Courtyards at Lawyers Road, this three bedroom, three full bath home was designed for the life you're stepping into - not the one you're leaving behind. Morning coffee moves naturally to the screened porch, then out onto a private paver patio courtyard - a quiet, tucked away outdoor space. Evenings end by the gas fireplace. Dinner comes together easily in a kitchen built for people who actually cook with generous counter space, thoughtful storage, and a layout that keeps the cook in the conversation. The ten foot ceilings, eight foot doors with surround sound feels elegant and spacious. Warm hardwood floors carry you through the main living spaces, while carpeted bedrooms stay soft underfoot. A custom closet keeps mornings simple, and lighting and ceiling fans throughout were chosen with care. The zero entry shower allows you to live independently for many years. Upstairs, a private bonus room with its own full bath and bedroom gives guests, hobbies, or a home office their own separate space. A walk-in attic solves the age-old question of where everything goes. Outside, the gas line is already run for weekend grilling, so all that's missing is the steak. Don't miss the amenities: Club House with a Fitness Center and entertainment area, Pool, Pond, Walking Trails, Bocce Ball, and Pickleball Courts. The Courtyards on Lawyers Road offers multiple social events and community groups! Located just off of I485, it's close to restaurants, groceries, doctors and shopping. At 2,941 square feet, this low-maintenance, single-family Epcon home in a 55+ neighborhood offers the space to spread out without the upkeep of a bigger, older house at a price far below similar new construction with options that Epcon doesn't currently offer (ten foot ceilings!)
